GOOD SPICED PICKLE
CUCUMBER MAKES ONE OF THE
BEST CONDIMENTS.
Various Flavors May Be Given the Rel
ish, According to Taste—Onions,
If One Likes Them, Are Most
Suitable.
This is an old recipe, used in our
family for twenty years.
Select small cucumbers of uniform
size, wash them and pack in a stone
jar or firkin. For 250 pickles use one
half cupful of'salt, pour on enough
boiling water to cover, and let stand
for three days, placing a plate over
them to keep them under the water,
and a weight on the plate. On the
third day drain off the water, which
will be covered with scum, wash and
wipe the cucumbers dry, rejecting
any that are soft. Now, if you like
a spicy, peppery pickle, with just a
suspicion of onion flavor, follow the
directions as given, but leave out any
thing you do not care for. Pare two |
onions and stick them full of whole I
cloves, place them in the bottom of '
your jar with six peppers, slit through
the center, and pack the cucumbers
oyer them.. Haye heating vinegar con
taining a bag of whole spices, either
mixed spices or such as you choose,
such as stick cinnamon, allspice, mus
tard seed and a little ceftry seed, add
a piece of alum as large as hal^ a nut
meg, and pour the vinegar over the cu
cumbers. Use good cider vinegar and
do not boil, but simply scald It.
These pickles are good in a week
or a year from the time they are made.
Try them. If sweet pickles are want
ed, add sugar in the proportion of one
and one-half cupfuls to a quart of
vinegar, or make them as swept as
desired. Tastes differ, so it is bard
to state exact quantities to be used. —

VEGETABLES AT THEIR BEST
Green Varieties Require Care In
Cooking If One Would Put Them
on the Table Perfect.
When cooking cabbage or cauliflow
er do not cover the saucepan; it
makes the vegetables tough and dis
colored. Put a small piece of stale
bread or crust on the top and it will
absorb all the disagreeable odor. All
green vegetables are Improved by the
addition to the water of the merest
suspicion of bread soda, a level tea
spoonful of sugar and a half teaspoon
ful of salt Let the water cover the
vegetables well and do not put them
in until it is bubbling all over. Then
let them down in small quantities and
by degrees, so that the sudden immer
sion of a cold mass will not cool the
water. Have a kettle boiling at the
side so as to add fresh water should
the vegetables become uncovered
through evaporation. Cabbage, Brus
sels sprouts, string beans, etc., cooked
in this way are a revelation ct green
ness, tenderness and flavor.
Onions, Adelphla Style.
Take six Spanish onions of uniform
size. Peel and parboil them, using part
milk and part water or all water, and
a level teaspoonful of salt. When cool
enough to handle, take out the centers
or hearts carefully. Chop fine two
hard-boiled eggs and mix with a large
tablespoonful of grated Parmesan or
chopped rich yellow cheese, a little
parsley, salt and paprika. Add enough
of the onion hearts, chopped fine, to
moisten the mixture nicely. Stuff heap
ing full, roll In beaten egg and crumbs
and fry In deep hot fat until nicely
browned, using a frying basket. Or ar
range them In a baking dish and put
a little grated cheese and melted butter
on the top of each and bake until
golden brown. The onions should be
parboiled until quite tender before
stuffing them.
Jelll d Peaches.
Drain the sirup from a jar of
peaches and cut the fruit into small
pieces. Measure the sirup, and if
there la not enough to make one pint,-
add enough water to make the de- i
sired quantity. Heat the sirup to the :
boiling point, stir In one tablespoonful
of granulated gelatin, softened in one
half cupful of water. Stir until dis
solved, add one tablespoonful lemon
juice, let stand In a cool place until It
begins to thicken, then add the
peaches, turn Into a mold and let
harden. Serve with whipped cream.
Clean Hearths.
Do not allow the hearth of the range
to be blackened, as it will soil your
aprons or dresses. Wring a house
cloth out of warm soapy water and
•wipe the hearth clean every morning.
Blacking will not be necessary.
Bour Milk Pie.
One cupful thick sour milk, one cup
ful chopped raisins seeded, one-half
cupful sugar, or more If needed, piece
butter size of a walnut, nutmeg and
cinnamon and one egg. Make with
two crusts,

by an avhing back or disordered urination,
give the kidneys prompt help and avoid
more serious troubles.

“Oh, yes,” said the parent; "there
are people living in the moon.”
“Are there many?” queried the
youngster.
"Yes. lots,” was the reply; “far more
than in this world.”
"Why, then,” said the youth, "aren’t

BABY HAD SCALP TROUBLE
Carthage, Texas.—"My little girl had
some kind of breaking out on her head
that came In white blisters and when
the blisters burst they formed some
thing like scales. If I washed her
i head and combed the scales off they
would come again in just a few days.
Tho trouble looked something like
dandruff but. was hard and scaly and
when the scales would come oft all of
the hair came also and would leave
the head raw.
“I had tried salves which only soft
ened the scales so I decided to use
Cuticura Soap and Ointment. I
washed her head with warm water and
Cuticura Soap and then applied the
Cuticura Ointment and let it remain
over night. I used only one box of
Cuticura Ointment and one bar of
Cuticura Soap and her head was well.”

ENTIRELY A PRIVATE AFFAIR
Group of Surveyors Really Had No
Right to “Peek” at Couple Far
Out on the Lake.
Far out on Lake Erle, nearly a mile
from Edgewater park beach, there
was a speck of black on the water.
Nearer shore there were other and
larger specks. Close in the specks be
came boats, containing fishermen and
other people. There must have been
a hundred, all told.
On the hill that borders the park
beach a party of city engineers were
at work.
Resting for a moment, an engineer
looked out over the lake. He saw the
farthest tiny speck.
"I wonder what that boat Is doing
way out there,” he mused. And he re
marked to the others about him.
So they brought one of those things
surveyors look through to ascertain
distance and straighten a line. They
trained it on the speck, and, taking
turns at looking, they saw as plainly
as if the boat rested only a few hun
dred feet away.
A man wearing a white shirt and a
girl wearing a white waist were In
that boat. They sat together on the
center seat. An arm of each embraced
(he other.
A stir. The girl used her other arm
to reach into the man's pocket. She
extracted a cigarette, lighted it, and
then blew smoke in the man’s face.
“Oh, let’s quit and be gentlemen,”
said the surveyors. ' They wouldn't
enjoy ft al all if they knew somebody
was looking."—Cleveland Plain Dealer.
Eskimo Sleds for Stefansson.

brought to an abrupt end January IG,
1913, by the sinking of his ship Karluk
in the ice floes, he carried dog sleds
made by Eskimos at Nome, Alaska.
The plans were furnished by ths ex
plorer, but the work was left entirely
to the natives under the guidance of a
mission priest. Strength and lightness
were the two essential features in
the construction work. A minimum
amount of lumber was used, but every
joint was braced and reinforced. Eight
of the snow vehicles were made, and
when completed they were strong
enough to carry all that could be load
ed into them.

Turn back over a hundred years
to the days of Andrew Jackson-
French Market Coffee was even then
the most famous drink in America.
Its history entwines itself with the
history of the old aristocracy of the
South. The Belles and Beaux of
New Orleans sipped it at midnight
for generations. To them no Mardi
